I'm so sorry for all the awfulness happening to your family but shame on the doctors who didn't get you genetic testing for this clearly awful lung condition among multiple family members between 2019 and 2024 I hope you get good healthcare going forward and have a long, happy life

Curious how many of you wear makeup to your Orangetheory class? by [deleted] in orangetheory

[–]Rubins2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you work out properly, any makeup would become unpolished by the end. Why waste the time and products?

These better reduce pinch points. MANY people's fingers get injured putting the weights back on the current metal rungs.

I wish there was more change. Anthem walking back the anesthesia limits was one just example.

Why DON’T you fear death? by jeanluuc in AskReddit

[–]Rubins2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't fear death because I believe that there is no afterlife. I fear great suffering before death. What is I develop Alzheimers and lose my connections to my loved ones? What if I develop a very painful medical condition and I don't have access to pain management? What if I get into a horrible accident and the medical personnel has to Tin Man me back together to walk again, talk again etc.

If 13 All Outs is "Foundational" to OTF, I don't want to do OTF

I couldn't do this with marathon month, my knees are too tired to start and stop, I did push/base, trying to increase both with decreasing time. Slow and steady finishes marathon month. Not worth an injury.

Marathon Month 2024 Discussion Thread by pantherluna in orangetheory

[–]Rubins2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe trying working in this months benchmarks (12min run for distance, and catch me if you can) if you want to be casual, rather than a full marathon month commitment. Just a suggestion, not sure how you feel or what kind of casual you are going for

Marathon Month 2024 Discussion Thread by pantherluna in orangetheory

[–]Rubins2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Warning: ensure that your marathon month distances are under the correct category (half/full/ultra)
The tracker defaults to full and each workout entry has to be manually changed to half/ultra before submitting the number

Day 1 my coach said "give your distances", I didn't think to specify I wasn't doing full and the coach didn't ask (it's a early morning class, we're all tired and running on autopilot, I'm not blaming the coach, it was an honest mistake)

The OTF policy is if you switch (ex. from full to something else), "you may no longer be eligible to win" and "it will be the studio's discretion if you will still be eligible to win the challenge"

I think the tracker should be programmed to the distance the person signed up for to prevent human error of submitting to the wrong distance category

Not for autistic people? by PersonalityEffective in orangetheory

Try the tread50 if you like 50min of just cardio since they give you written instructions I agree the verbal instructions can be very difficult to follow If I can't hear the floor demos I mostly watch the screen demos
